Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 497: Tang San, the Beastman, in the City of Slaughter

The Asura God doesn't care about things like Tang San's mental health; what he cares about is whether Tang San still has any use to him.

The Asura God, using the body of the God of Slaughter Hypnos, looked at Tang San and felt the Asura Demon Sword in his hand trembling slightly. He wished he could cut off Tang San's head right now.

However, whenever he thought about how much he had sacrificed for this plan and that there was no turning back now, the God of Asura had to suppress his murderous intent time and time again.

Tang San was now completely consumed by bloodlust, with almost no remaining rationality. Upon looking up and discovering an unknown entity at the cave entrance, his first reaction was not surprise or fear, but rather an instinctive surge of killing intent.

Spider-like blue silver grass pierced out, aiming at Hypnos's body. Tang San's eyes revealed a bloodthirsty emotion, as if he was looking forward to this unknown newcomer being pierced through the body and becoming his new sacrifice.

"roll!"

Hypnos made no attempt to conceal his malice, slapping out a palm that tore the Blue Silver Grass to shreds while still striking Tang San with undiminished force, slamming him heavily against the wall and knocking him unconscious instantly.

"My lord, what's the point of keeping this kind of person alive? Wouldn't it be better to just kill him?"

Hypnos complained to the god of asura in his heart.

Although he knew he wasn't a good person, having served as the enforcer of the divine realm for so long, Hypnos couldn't help but feel a surge of murderous intent when he saw such a being.

His loyalty to the God of Asura is beyond question, but that doesn't mean he doesn't think or question why.

The God of Asura remained silent for a moment, unsure how to answer. After all, in his eyes, Tang San was essentially beyond redemption. But as he had said before, the sunk cost he had invested in Tang San was simply too great, too great for him to turn back.

It's no longer a question of whether he'll lead Tang San by the hand; it's that he's forced to be led by Tang San while he's holding his nose.

"It's all going according to plan." Although Shura God was inwardly frustrated, he still answered with feigned profundity.

"Although he is in poor condition, his ability is not a problem. That's the most important thing."

"..." Hypnos was silent for a moment, unsure how to answer.

“Perfect timing. He can’t stay outside any longer in this state. So take this opportunity to bring him into the City of Slaughter, let him grow there, and personally train and correct him.”

The Asura God commanded Hypnos.

"Clean up all these traces, and take away all the survivors. These people are still very useful."

"Yes." Hypnos glanced at the corpses on the ground with disgust, and with a surge of soul power, easily turned them into a cloud of blood mist. He then reached out and grabbed the blood skull in his hand, preparing to crush it. But he was stopped by the God of Asura.

"Let's keep these skulls; they might be useful in the future." After considering the number of people in the Haotian Sect, the Asura God felt that there might be other ways to remedy the situation in the future.

Thus, under the intervention of Hypnos, Tang San, Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Tang Xiao, Tang Chen, and the others were all taken to the City of Slaughter. Taking advantage of the unique environment within the City of Slaughter, the God of Asura secretly unleashed a portion of his divine power to distort the state of these people.

Tang San's mental state was extremely worrying; although his soul was intact, his thoughts were quite disordered. The God of Asura, not being a god of emotions, wasn't adept at this, so he could only resort to brutality.

First, they reinforced Tang San's memories of the Tang Sect from his previous life, then they damaged some of Tang San's spirit, making him less aggressive and more introverted.

As for the complex and turbid soul power within Tang San's body, the God of Asura devised a plan to seal it, intending for Tang San to absorb this power little by little.

However, it was precisely because of this in-depth examination that the Asura God discovered that Tang San's current condition was far from optimistic. Currently, the bloodline of the Human-Faced Demon Spider accounted for more than one-third of his body, the bloodline of the Blue Silver Grass also accounted for one-third, and the human bloodline was less than one-third.

To put it simply, if the original Tang San was a perfect combination of human and soul beast, the current Tang San is a pure hybrid, the kind who sits at the same table eating with the wolf thief born from the Gale Demon Wolf.

If it weren't for the fact that his twin martial souls had been awakened for so many years and had already become completely stable, judging from his current bloodline, if Tang San were to awaken his martial souls again, he simply wouldn't be able to awaken them at all.

After dealing with Tang San, the main issue, the God of Asura began to deal with the others. Tang Xiao, still petrified, was slowly unsealed within the City of Slaughter, while Tang Chen was thrown into the Blood Pool for repair. Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, due to the unique nature of their martial souls, received additional power from the God of Asura, guiding their martial souls towards a bloodthirsty transformation.

The White Tiger Martial Soul inherently possesses a killing aspect; the Star Luo Royal Family's White Tiger has simply atrophied in this regard. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, on the other hand, has extremely high plasticity and powerful mutation capabilities, all of which can be utilized.

Nowadays, the God of Asura no longer expects the people around Tang San to become his assistants; he hopes they can help distribute the negative energy on Tang San.

Nourished by the power of the Asura God, Tang San slowly woke up, feeling that his head was inexplicably empty, as if something was missing.

It seems I just had another dream about the Tang Clan from my past life. After waking up, I felt strangely uneasy about the calm I felt inside.

He looked up and saw a blood-red figure bowing to a blood-red demonic sword with its back to him. The moment Tang San's gaze met the sword, he saw through it a towering, blood-red figure standing proudly in the sky.

Shock, fear, awe, envy.
Tang San was completely unable to control his emotions for a moment, his body trembling, and it took him a long time to barely regain his ability to think.

When he looked up again, he found that the figure that had been kneeling was now standing in front of him, looking at him with an expression as if he were trash.

"I am the God of Slaughter, Shupronos, the chief agent under the God of Asura."

A murderous intent permeated the air, stimulating Tang San's spirit. Hypnos's face remained calm, but the disgust in his eyes was undisguised.

"This place is a city of slaughter, the place where the Asura God is put to the test."
